Following the guidelines some time ago, with a post on its support page, Apple has now shared a list of products that should be kept a safe distance from medical devices, such as pacemakers and implanted defibrillators, due to potential magnetic interference. : 15cm which becomes 30cm if the device is wireless charging, to avoid any potential interference with medical devices. Devices which, although containing magnets, could hardly interfere with medical devices were excluded from the list.
Earlier this month, the American Heart Association said that in a small study of different types of pacemakers and implantable defibrillators, 11 out of 14 heart devices experienced interference when an iPhone 12 Pro Max was held nearby. from the heart device (within 1.5 cm). With all this, Apple seems to go down in history as the villain of the day but it is worth remembering that it is certainly not the only company to implement magnets and technologies that can disrupt medical devices in its devices. .
